normally? so there is an other/better way? i'd like to learn it right... somehow

The "best" way depends on what kind of effect you are using, if you are going to make something explode for example, each syl has to be on a different layer. However if your just adding a glow or something similar then you can do it the way you do it now.

Not really, you can however give fixed transition timing now, that may help some, but if your having a really bad problem with overlapping lines then you may want to split the karaoke into 2 sections (like my Kurokami OP). I normally just shorten the transitions some or go in by hand for the few lines that do overlap :/

You would be surprised, I'm always online so if you have a question or something, I'll see it whenever I'm at my PC. I IRC much more often than here
